Bon Bini na Bonaire .........Welcome to Bonaire !

Bonaire is an "undiscovered gem" - the authentic Caribbean - as it used to be.

Bonaire is very small, very relaxed and very peaceful, with a surprising number of things to do around the island, but all done in that authentic Caribbean way  no rush no fuss. Bonaire gives you the Caribbean as it used to be  undeveloped and unspoilt and a friendly atmosphere - unlike anywhere else in the world. We say "undiscovered" as it will be new to many people  only 60,000 people visit Bonaire each year  and Bonaire captures the heart of each and every one. Bonaire is famous for being the best diving and snorkelling destination in the world  the reef is very close to shore, a warm clear ocean and a staggering diversity of marine life. The island motto is Divers Paradise  which means it is heaven for snorkellers too.

Bonaire is an "undiscovered gem" - the authentic Caribbean - as it used to be. If it is possible for an island to be "unpretentious" - then Bonaire is precisely that ! A small, charming, undeveloped island that has so much to offer. Bonaire will capture your heart.

The local people are welcoming and helpful, and unlikely to approach you, unless asked. Do not mistake this for aloofness  we can assure you  local people are naturally shy. There is nowhere quite like Bonaire  a charming island where you can relax and unwind completely. No hassle, no fuss, no one constantly trying to sell you something. A holiday on Bonaire is a genuinely memorable experience. No surprise that so many people fall in love with Bonaire  and return, year after year ! In 1976 Bonaire's residents voted - in an island referendum - to resist over-development and introduce measures to conserve the natural environment of the island. This has made Bonaire a peaceful, natural "oasis" - in our hectic, busy world. There is a lot to see and do  but in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. This wonderful small island is not a major tourist destination - no crowds on Bonaire - on land or sea ! No mass tourism, no theme parks, no fun fairs. The lack of commercial development, wonderful weather and friendliness of the local people, lets you enjoy your holiday to the full, without feeling like a tourist.

Perfect Weather !

"Perfect weather" means that no matter what kind of holiday you prefer, you can enjoy it to the full. When is a good time to go ? ......Anytime - is a good time to go !

The Ocean

Ocean conditions are perfect for the many water sports on offer.
